UVa1400 - Ray, Pass me the dishes
出處:https://onlinejudge.org/index.php?option=com_onlinejudge&Itemid=8&page=show_problem&problem=4146
After doing Ray a great favor to collect sticks for Ray, Poor Neal becomes very hungry. In return
for Neal’s help, Ray makes a great dinner for Neal. When it is time for dinner, Ray arranges all the
dishes he makes in a single line (actually this line is very long . . ., the dishes are represented by 1, 2, 3
. . .). “You make me work hard and don’t pay me! You refuse to teach me Latin Dance! Now it is time
for you to serve me”, Neal says to himself.
Every dish has its own value represented by an integer whose absolute value is less than 1,000,000,000.
Before having dinner, Neal is wondering about the total value of the dishes he will eat. So he raises
many questions about the values of dishes he would have.
For each question Neal asks, he will first write down an interval [a, b] (inclusive) to represent all
the dishes a, a + 1, . . . , b, where a and b are positive integers, and then asks Ray which sequence of
consecutive dishes in the interval has the most total value. Now Ray needs your help.
Input
The input file contains multiple test cases. For each test case, there are two integers n and m in the
first line (n, m < 500000). n is the number of dishes and m is the number of questions Neal asks.
Then n numbers come in the second line, which are the values of the dishes from left to right. Next
m lines are the questions and each line contains two numbers a, b as described above. Proceed to the
end of the input file.
Output
For each test case, output m lines. Each line contains two numbers, indicating the beginning position
and end position of the sequence. If there are multiple solutions, output the one with the smallest
beginning position. If there are still multiple solutions then, just output the one with the smallest end
position. Please output the result as in the Sample Output.
Sample Input
3 1
1 2 3

解題策略:segment tree
建立segment tree,計算每一個segment的區間最大值,前缀最大與後缀最大
如何合併兩個區間,計算出合併後區間最大值,前缀最大與後缀最大
(1)區間最大只有三種可能性,橫跨左右兩邊、區間最大只在左邊、區間最大只在右邊
(2)前缀最大為左邊的前缀最大,左邊全部與右邊前缀最大相加
(3)後缀最大為右邊的後缀最大,左邊後缀最大與右邊全部相加
